Names to go with Lucy?

[harperquinn]

[name]Hi[/name], Berries!

I’ve been a fan of nameberry for quite some time and have finally decided to come out of lurkdome and join in on the fun! I’m not expecting but was wondering if you could give me some opinions on some of my favorites.

The name I absolutely [name]ADORE[/name] is [name]Lucy[/name]. It’s a name I love so much that I don’t even care about its popularity. I love its spunk, its simplicity, that it’s sweet but also a little on the sassy side (wow, that’s a lot of s’s…) I’m a huge Beatles fan so I love that connection and [name]Lucille[/name] Ball is a wonderful namesake. [name]Lucy[/name] has been my number one for years now, and I love thinking about other names that go with it.

Here are some of my other faves…

[name]Eliza[/name] - Not sure if I’m in love with [name]Eliza[/name], or if I’m just drawn to it because to me it’s a great fit with [name]Lucy[/name])
[name]Norah[/name] - I go back and forth between loving this and thinking it’s a bit too plain
[name]Ramona[/name] - Too much with [name]Lucy[/name]?
[name]Delia[/name] - or [name]Cordelia[/name]?
[name]Claire[/name] - I have always wished my name was [name]Claire[/name]…
[name]Clara[/name] - [name]Claire[/name] or [name]Clara[/name]? Which do you like better?
[name]Matilda[/name] - I heard a sibset the other day named [name]Toby[/name], [name]Lucy[/name], and [name]Tilly[/name], and thought it was absolutely adorable
[name]Pearl[/name] - I feel the same about this one as [name]Eliza[/name]. But maybe it doesn’t go as well as I think it does
[name]June[/name] - This one has recently entered my list. I think I’d just love to call a baby girl Junebug!
[name]Fiona[/name] - Not sure if this could ever work with [name]Lucy[/name], but I love it…
[name]Adelaide[/name] - Would [name]Della[/name] work as a nn? Not a huge fan of [name]Addie[/name] or Lady…But probably too much with [name]Lucy[/name], yes?
[name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Willa[/name]
[name]Olive[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Hazel[/name]
[name]Flora[/name]

I’d really love to hear your comments! The more honest the better! Thanks!

When I was 4/5 I was going to have two children called [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Tom[/name] when I grew up hehe. Unfortunately a couple of [name]Lucy[/name]'s I’ve met have given me bad associations with the name (don’t you hate that!) and it’s too popular for my tastes, but I can definitely see why you love it! It’s so sweet on a little girl but one of my main reservations used to be that it wouldn’t age well, but one of my best friend’s fiancee is called [name]Lucy[/name] and is in her 20s and it sounds great on her!

So, on to [name]Lucy[/name]'s “sisters”

[name]Eliza[/name] - I do agree this works really well with [name]Lucy[/name]. [name]Both[/name] have a kind of perky, wholesome, fun feel to me. I’d keep it on the list for now while you decide if you really love it, but if you decide you don’t I’d nix it. I think it’s more important to love each individual name than the sibset.

[name]Norah[/name] - I prefer the [name]Nora[/name] spelling but either way I think it’s a really sweet and gentle name, which are qualities I also see in [name]Lucy[/name]. I don’t think it’s plain at all! [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Nora[/name] sounds adorable. Or even [name]Lucinda[/name] and [name]Eleanor[/name], nn [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Nora[/name]? Or [name]Luciana[/name] and [name]Eleonora[/name] nn [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Nora[/name]?

[name]Ramona[/name] - I love [name]Ramona[/name], but to me it’s like the total opposite kind of name to [name]Lucy[/name] so I wouldn’t use them together. [name]Ramona[/name]'s so strong, quirky and a little masculine to me. [name]Lucy[/name] is sweet, soft and feminine.

[name]Delia[/name] - I prefer [name]Cordelia[/name], but [name]Delia[/name] sounds better with [name]Lucy[/name]. [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Delia[/name]. Yup, adorable! [name]Cordelia[/name] would work well with a longer version of [name]Lucy[/name] like [name]Lucienne[/name] or [name]Lucinda[/name] though?

[name]Claire[/name] - if you’ve always wished you were a [name]Claire[/name] I think that’s pretty much the highest compliment you could pay a name, and I happen to think [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Claire[/name] sound perfect together! [name]Clara[/name]'s cute and vintage but I prefer the fresh sounding [name]Claire[/name] with [name]Lucy[/name].

[name]Matilda[/name] - yes [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Matilda[/name], or [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Tilly[/name] are adorable together! I really love the name [name]Matilda[/name] and it has the same warm feel as [name]Lucy[/name] to me. This is a definite yes!

[name]Pearl[/name] - [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Pearl[/name] just makes me think of the group [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]!! I actually don’t think the two names match stylistically, but it could make a good middle name for one of the other names?

[name]June[/name] - I love this for the same reason you said! The nn Junebug is so frigging sweet Unfortunately my partner vetoed it But for you I love it. [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]June[/name] has a very different feel to [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Claire[/name] but both work well imo. [name]June[/name] makes [name]Lucy[/name] feel a little more vintage cool.

[name]Fiona[/name] - I don’t see why this couldn’t work with [name]Lucy[/name]. It’s not the most obvious match but I definitely think they could be sisters and [name]Fiona[/name] is a lovely name

[name]Adelaide[/name] - not my favourite with [name]Lucy[/name], although I do love the name. [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Adele[/name] on the other hand…perfect! I love that [name]Adele[/name] is such a classic, timeless, simple name, and yet has never been hugely popular. [name]Della[/name] would work as a nn for either [name]Adelaide[/name] or [name]Adele[/name] but I think it’s a more obvious nn for [name]Adele[/name] as the “[name]Dell[/name]” part is more pronounced.

[name]Caroline[/name] - I know the Berries love this name, but to me it’s still just my middle aged aunts name! Lol. And I find it a little boring. [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Cara[/name] or [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Cora[/name] would be gorgeous though

[name]Willa[/name] - I can’t make my mind up with this one. I love [name]Willa[/name], but I’m unsure about [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Willa[/name]. [name]Willow[/name] seems to me like a better match, but [name]Willa[/name] isn’t bad either I suppose. Something just seems a little off to me when I say the two together.

[name]Olive[/name] - like [name]June[/name], this would make [name]Lucy[/name] seem a lot more vintage and cool, but I don’t like [name]Olive[/name] as much as [name]June[/name], and I don’t like it with [name]Lucy[/name] as much either. [name]Olive[/name] seems like it’s trying a bit too hard to be cool, whereas [name]June[/name] seems like a more natural sister to [name]Lucy[/name].

[name]Ivy[/name] - ahhh [name]Ivy[/name] This is in my own top 5 names and I really REALLY adore it. I know they have matching “ee” endings, but I still think [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Ivy[/name] would make super sweet sisters

[name]Iris[/name] - [name]Iris[/name] might be too delicate to be [name]Lucy[/name]'s sister. [name]Lucy[/name] is soft and sweet but has a bit of spunk, like [name]Ivy[/name] and [name]Eliza[/name] and [name]June[/name], but [name]Iris[/name] is just dainty and soft through and through to me. I do adore the name though so if you love it I’d keep it.

[name]Hazel[/name] - this was my great-aunts name, but I’ve never loved it. I’d use it as a middle name but I don’t love it as a first and it seems harsh next to [name]Lucy[/name] to me.

[name]Flora[/name] - I’m not a fan of [name]Flora[/name]. It seems way too cutesy and [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Flora[/name] together is just [name]OTT[/name] to me.

So my favourites with [name]Lucy[/name] are; [name]June[/name], [name]Adele[/name], [name]Claire[/name], [name]Matilda[/name], [name]Nora[/name], [name]Eliza[/name], [name]Ivy[/name], [name]Fiona[/name], [name]Delia[/name] and [name]Cara[/name].

I think a lovely sibset would be something like:

[name]Lucy[/name], [name]June[/name], [name]Matilda[/name] and [name]Ivy[/name]

or [name]Lucy[/name], [name]Adele[/name], [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Eliza[/name]

or [name]Lucinda[/name], [name]Adelaide[/name], [name]Cordelia[/name] and [name]Eleanor[/name]

Good luck!

I love the name [name]Lucy[/name] too, mainly because of the association with the main character in The [name]Lion[/name], The Witch and The Wardrobe series - although the Beatles connection is great too. Unfortunately I think it’s gotten a bit popular in recent years - all the names I loved when I was younger have rocketed up the charts as I’ve reached my childbearing years! It’s the same with [name]Eliza[/name].
But I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Clara[/name], [name]Adelaide[/name], [name]Ivy[/name], [name]Iris[/name], [name]Hazel[/name] and [name]Flora[/name]. I think any of them would be beautiful with [name]Lucy[/name].

I have a [name]Lucie[/name] ‘running’ around the house I, too, have loved that name for a long time now and I still love it.

As for your other favorites:
[name]Eliza[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it!
[name]Norah[/name] - Same feeling as you have, can’t decide whether I like it or not, but that would mean a no-go for me…
[name]Ramona[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like it and definitely not with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Delia[/name] - It’s OK
[name]Claire[/name] or [name]Clara[/name]? Which do you like better? - Definitely prefer [name]Clara[/name] and it fits way better with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Matilda[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like it.
[name]Pearl[/name] - It’s OK, I’m not sold on [name]Pearl[/name], but it’s quite surprising to see how well it fits with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]June[/name] - Like it!
[name]Fiona[/name] - Not sure if this could ever work with [name]Lucy[/name], but I love it… - Same opinion
[name]Adelaide[/name] - No.
[name]Caroline[/name] - I feel like it’s too old for [name]Lucy[/name], I love this name but would only use it as a mn. ([name]Lucy[/name] [name]Caroline[/name])
[name]Willa[/name] - No.
[name]Olive[/name] - Prefer [name]Olivia[/name], but quite nice.
[name]Ivy[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like it.
[name]Iris[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it! (just a little bit biased)
[name]Hazel[/name] - Have always been fond of this name, but it seems so weird next to [name]Lucy[/name]. The names are very different and I don’t really like that, but that’s just my opinion.
[name]Flora[/name] - Not sold on it. I prefer [name]Fleur[/name].

My favorites are [name]Eliza[/name], [name]Clara[/name], [name]June[/name] and [name]Iris[/name].

FYI: My other daughters are [name]Alice[/name] (twin sister of [name]Lucie[/name]), [name]Julia[/name] and newborn [name]Clara[/name]
